Breakfast Topic: What WoW figure do you want on your desert island?

You've all heard the premise before: You go out on a cruise and are shipwrecked. The island has plenty of food, water, and shelter for you to live pleasantly for a long period of time (well, at least as pleasantly as one can live without an internet connection). Now the person talking to you says, "You only managed to find one music CD in the ship wreckage, and a working CD player. What CD will get you through this marooning?" More often than not, the person you are talking to then laughs at you when you answer, because you listen to weird music and and are inherently weird yourself.
Well, that is what happens to me, anyway.
Moving on, here is my version of the situation: You are stuck on an island. There is plenty of food, water, and shelter to survive. However, it's all in very basic form; there is no cup of never-ending chicken soup or fancy hotel. I hope you like bananas, and don't mind the rain. Now, in this scenario, there was one person who survived the cruise with you!
Here is where you come in to making this scenario. Name one person from Warcraft lore or an NPC from in game that you survived the wreck with. Did you manage to survive with Garrosh Hellscream? You could spend your time wrestling and training until you are rescued! Maybe Kael'thas Sunstrider, so you would have someone who would never, ever, ever, ever tire of talking. Or perhaps you would like to have that bread vendor from Ironforge, to supplement your diet of bananas. So who would you bring and why? (By the way, if you bring a mage, no portal or teleport runes were recovered from the wreck. No cheating!)

Jaina, to port me off the island.
Samutz Jan 13th 2011 8:03AM
Agh. I missed that very last sentence.
Julien Jan 13th 2011 8:11AM
Don't worry, Jaina doesn't need reagents.
PvtDeth Jan 13th 2011 8:33AM
Dang. I thought I was original when that was the first thing I thought of.

On the subject of Mages, I love that the writer specified both portal *and* teleport runes.
You: Oh thank god, a Mage was shipwrecked with me!
Mage: *casts Teleport*
Mage: *poof*
You: D:

Jaina, but seriously, if you are stuck in a cartoon world and Jaina was your company on a deserted isle, forget about the portal. How about bringing back some beer and a steak.

I just want Jaina period.
"Jaina, it's too hot. Blizzard, now!"
"Jaina, I'm hungry. Mage food now!"
"Jaina, I'm thirsty. Water elemental, now!"
"Jaina, I'm bored. (Jaina glares) ...um, actually never mind."

I'd still pick Jaina. I think she'd be the only person I could really LIVE with. Plus, as a mage, she could use the physical labour involved.
(Yeah, come get me, clothies! LOL)
Because she really doesn't have much going on for her in Theramore either - maybe she could see it as a vacation...
...With a Draenei Death Knight. Both in bikinis or such.

You all are missing one of the big negatives about Jaina. If she ends up loving you, and that would eventually happen if enough time passed, you would then become a raid boss somewhere and have to be killed. Do you really want that to happen?
...Actually, it would be pretty cool to be a raid boss with all of their cool abilities and you could have people banging their head against you for a while before they finally killed you only to come back to life the next Tuesday. Hmm, Jaina is looking better and better.

I'd say Jaina.
Food, water (elementals), companionship and eventual naughty bits. What more do you need?
Xantenise Jan 13th 2011 6:50PM
I was about to say that as well!
Matheus314 Jan 13th 2011 8:03AM
Jaina Proudmoor, but of course!
I can't even think in someone else!
*_*
Hansbo Jan 13th 2011 8:05AM
Captain placeholder. He could rescue me.
The Angry Intern Jan 13th 2011 12:46PM
LOL! That brings back some memories!
mrs_carth_onasi Jan 13th 2011 8:06AM
Alexstrasza's sexy self, to keep me busy!
gboyd Jan 13th 2011 8:20AM
Because getting it on with a massive dragon sounds fun. :P
Udderpowered Jan 13th 2011 8:23AM
For some reason those donkey-dragon babies from Shrek come to mind.
Omellette Jan 13th 2011 10:27AM
BINGO. And, when you're both bored with whatever, you can hop on her back and she can fly you both home...
:-D
Aris Jan 13th 2011 10:33AM
This is who I thought of, too... because dragons can FLY. "Take us home, Alex!"
Nawaf Jan 13th 2011 10:58AM
Ysera would be better, since she loves to "sleep".
